• Additional hardware and accessories for the door, window, and interior for burglary and
fire protection.
Step Two – Establish Access Group Privileges
Access groups are established based on the site security needs. Once the installer
understands these considerations, the next step is to work with the business owner or
manager to establish the operating rules that determine how to group the occupants of the
premises. Note that the rules of operation should include a detailed flow of movement of
personnel throughout the premises. The personnel are divided into access groups that are
related to the premises access points and time schedules.
To illustrate this, a list of access groups with corresponding card user authority levels as
required by the security needs of the site is provided below. Recall that these security needs
are what defines the cardholder's access privileges.
• Executive Officers:
a. Can access all access points.
b. Can disarm/arm all partitions.
c. Access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
d. Valid card swipe automatically disarms respective partition.
• Office Managers:
a. Can access points 1 and 2 during time schedule while partitions are armed or disarmed.
b. Valid card swipe automatically disarms partitions 1 and 2.
c. Cannot access point 3 or disarm/arm partition 3.
• Office Workers:
a. Can access point 1 and arm/disarm partition 1 during time schedule.
b. Valid card swipe automatically disarms partition 1.
c. Can access point 2 only while disarmed and during time schedule. Cannot arm/disarm
partition 2.
d. Cannot access point 3 or arm/disarm partition 3.
• Factory Managers:
a. Can access points 1 and 3 during time schedule while partitions are armed or disarmed.
b. Valid card swipe automatically disarms partitions 1 and 3.
c. Cannot access point 2 or disarm/arm partition 2.
• Factory Workers:
a. Can access point 1 and arm/disarm partition 1 during time schedule.
b. Valid card swipe automatically disarms partition 1.
c. Can access point 3 only while disarmed and during time schedule. Cannot arm/disarm
partition 3.
d. Cannot access point 2 or arm/disarm partition 2.
Step Three – Program the System
After the access groups have been defined, we can proceed to fill out the worksheet that
facilitates the planning of the security installation. Note that the partial worksheet below
will expand as we add more access control/security related requirements specific to our
security installation.
Note that an Access Group Worksheet is provided at the end of this section so that you can
fill out a worksheet based on your actual site requirements.
In the worksheet below, we have added the names of our access groups (column 2) and added
the privileges (column 3) for each group we established in the previous step.
